A NOTE ABOUT THIS TEXT
This brief text contains a translation of a small number of pattern chained (Musalsal) hadith narrated
by Shaykh Yaḥyā bin Muḥammad al-Mullā, who hails from the historic city of al-Ahsa in Saudi
Arabia. Shaykh Yaḥyā narrates a number of the hadith contained in this text from his teachers, such
as Shaykhs: Muḥammad bin Abī Bakr al-Mullā, Aḥmad Jābir Jibrān, ʿAbdullah bin Saeed al-Lahji,
Ismāʿīl al-Zayn and many others. The bulk of his transmission of Musalsal hadith however comes
from two of his teachers, namely: Shaykh Muḥammad Yāsīn al-Fādānī and Shaykh ʿAbd al-Raḥmān
bin Abī Bakr al-Mullā. Therefore in this work the chain of Shaykh al-Fādānī will predominatly be
cited, and on occasions the chain of Shaykh ʿAbd al-Raḥmān bin Abī Bakr al-Mullā.
DISCLAIMER: A WORK IN PROGRESS
From amongst the final words of
Shaykh Abd al-Baqi al-Ayyubi
In his
Manahil al-Salsalah fi
Al-Ahadith al-Musalsalah
1
The Musalsal hadith contains an intimacy which distinguishes it in comparison to other hadith. When
I see that I have shaken hands with someone who has shaken hands with someone who in turn has
shaken hands with someone going back to the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace),
I visualise my hand connecting to the hand of the Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace).
There is for the soul in this an intimacy and good fortune which is not in the rest of the hadith.
— Imām Ibn al-Jawzī at the beginning of his Musalalat collection
DEDICATION
This work is dedicated to the pious men and women scholars mentioned in the chains of narration,
who transmitted these narrations to us generation after generation. They may have passed away long
ago, but we still remember them and are indebted to them for their sacrifices. May Allah Taala reward
them with the best of rewards and raise their rank in the next world. Amin.

It was narrated to us by Shaykh Muḥammad
Yāsīn al-Fādānī who said;
It was narrated to us by Shaykh ʿAli bin Falih
al-Zahiri al-Madani, the recitor Shihāb Aḥmad
bin ʿAbdullāh al-Mukhallalātī al-Shāmī and
then al-Makkī, the most learned astronomer
Shaykh Khalīfah bin Hamd al-Nabhānī, the
recitor Shaykh Ibrahīm bin Musā al-Khizāmī alSudani then al-Makkī, Imām Ḥāfiz Sayyid Abd
al-Hayy bin Abd al-Kabīr al-Kattānī al-Fāsī, and
it is the first hadith which I narrate from them;
from Abū al-Yusr Fālīḥ bin Muḥammad alZāhirī al-Madanī and it is the first; from Sayyid
Muḥammad ʿAli al-Sanusī al-Khattābī alShalafī and it is the first; from Abū Hafs ʿUmar
bin Abd al-Karīm al-Attar and it is the first;
from Imām Muḥammad bin al-Tayyib alMaghribī then al-Madanī and it is the first; from
1
This hadith is also known as the Hadith of Mercy and is traditionally narrated to a student by his or her
teacher as the first hadith they hear from them. Shaykh Abd al-Hayy al-Kattānī (Allah have mercy on him) at
the beginning of his work Fihris al-Fahāris (1/93) discussed the reason why the scholars of hadith started their
gatherings with this narration, he said that this hadith is, “Widespread amongst the Muslim community
(ummah), and was paid attention to by the scholars of the science (of hadith). They gave precedence to narrating
it over other hadith so that they would have a continuous pattern, as we have also done. It is also so that the
seeker of knowledge follows it and knows that the basis of knowledge is mercy, love and maintaining ties, not
turning away and breaking (off relations). So if the student is nurtured with this, with him is nurtured the call
to knowledge and mercy…and he is not raised except with the character trait of mercy.”

Shaykh Abd al-Baqi al-Ayyubi in his Manahil al-Salsalah (p.9) mentioned that he heard this narration from
all of his Shaykhs with the addition ‫وتعاىل‬
‫تبارك‬,
it was not however mentioned by Ibn al-Jazari, al-Suyuti,
Muḥammad Abid al-Sindī and others. The fact of the matter is that it is not from the narration but rather it is
by way of good manners (adab) at the mention of the Divine Name. It should be recited by the narrator of this
hadith and some scholars added that it not be recorded but recited.

Shams Muḥammad bin al-Tayyib al-Maghribi then al-Madini said: This hadith – as was stated by
more than one of the Imāms – is an elevated Ḥasan hadith. It was related by Al-Bukhārī in his work
3
Al-Kuna and Al-Adab al-Mufrad, Aḥmad and al-Humaydi in their Musnads, al-Bayhaqi in Al-Shuab,
Abū Dāwūd and Al-Tirmidhī in their Sunan’s, Abū ʿAli al-Zafarani as recorded from his narration as
cited from him by Ibn Al-Abbar and others. Al-Tirmidhī said: This hadith is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ, it was
cited by Al-Ḥākim in Al-Mustadrak who graded it Ṣaḥīḥ, and it is so taking in to account the follow
up and supporting narrations which it has which is not hidden to the one who has some familiarity
with the sciences of hadith. Likewise Zayn al-Iraqi and others were certain of it being Ṣaḥīḥ without
hesitation, and Allah knows best.4

In the footnote of the printed edition of Al-Ujalah (p.10) it states that this is a mistake.

Each one of the narrators said the same,

I [Yaḥyā bin Muḥammad bin Abī Bakr alMullā] say: I said to our teacher, Shaykh
ʿAbd al-Raḥmān bin Abī Bakr al-Mullā:

Ibn Aqilah said: This hadith was related by al-Dibaji in his Musalsalat, Ibn Mufaddal and al-Tamimi
in his Musalsalat. The hadith has been discussed as being weak and fabricated, even if the text is Ṣaḥīḥ
as related by al-Bukhārī, Aḥmad bin Hanbal from ʿAnas, “I have never touched any silk or brocade
that is softer than the palm of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him,
nor have I ever smelled musk or scent more fragrant than the fragrance of the Messenger of Allah,
may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him."
Al-Suyuti said in Jiyad al-Musalsalat: This hadith was related by Ibn Asakir in his Tarikh from the
route of ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Ṭabarī from Abū Muḥammad Abd al-Mālik bin Muḥammad bin Nujayd
al-Baghawi in a musalsal form. Abid al-Sindī said: Shams al-Sakhawi vigorously denied its being
musalsal and said: Abū Hurmuz – whose name is Nafi – was declared a liar on occasion by Ibn Main,
and Abū Hashim said he was severely weak (matruk dhahib al-hadith).. Abid [al-Sindī] said: He
however was not alone in narrating it, for it was related in a pattern form from the route of
Muḥammad bin Kamil.7

Therefore those wishing to narrate this hadith from Shaykh Yaḥyā al-Mullā should say the following to him
after hearing the hadith:

After which you will shake his hand and he will say to you: Assalamu Alaikum

Shaykh Abd al-Baqi al-Ayyubi in his Manahil al-Salsalah p.41-42 citing these words adds the following:
“I say: And that is by means of that which I narrate from Sayyid Amin from Abd al-Ghani, from Muḥammad
Abid, from Sayyid ʿAbd al-Raḥmān bin Sulayman bin Yaḥyā bin ʿUmar Maqbul al-Ahdal, from his father,

With regards to Muhammad bin Kamil, Imam al-Sakhawi said in Jawahir al-Mukallalah that he was not relied

This part of the chain needs further examination, a discussion of which I could not find specifically in a
number of the commonly used Musalsalat works. The issue is as follows: Shaykh Abd al-Hayy al-Luknawi
mentions in his Nafi al-Kabir (p.44) that Hafidh Ibn Ḥajar passed away in 852H whilst Imām al-Suyuti was
born in 849H. Working out the dates of the death and birth of these scholars it appears that Imām al-Suyuti
was three and a half years of age at the time of Hafidh Ibn Ḥajars passing away. Imām al-Suyuti himself in
Tadhkirah al-Huffadh in the biography of Hafidh Ibn Ḥajar said that, “I have a general Ijāzah from him, and I
do not deem it far fetched that I have a specific Ijāzah from him, for my father would visit him often.”
Likewise in his work Tadrib al-Rawi (2/407) he mentions the pattern chained (musalsal) narration of Huffadh
wherein he mentions his narration from Hafidh Ibn Ḥajar by way of general Ijāzah, adding that, “I do not
narrate anything else by it (meaning the general Ijāzah) except this hadith.” This Musalsal is neither mentioned
in Imām al-Suyuti’s work Jiyad al-Musalsalat which is in print, however he does have a larger work on Musalsal
hadith which is not in print and which may shed light on this matter. Allah Most High knows best.

Ibn al-Tayyib said: Al-Sakhawi indicated to all of its chains of transmission and was critical of Ibn alJazari’s view that it possessed a good chain from the route of Al-Mutui, as he declared weak by Abū
Nuʿaym and Ibn Mardawayh. However they did clearly mention that the chains of the hadith even
if they were weak mutually strengthened each other.
Shaykh Abd al-Baqi al-Ayyubi said: The narrators of our chain from Ruh to those above him are the
Imāms of Quranic recitation, and Al-Mutui is not in this chain. The name of al-Mutui is Ḥasan bin
Sa’d, he is a great Imām, trustworthy in recitation…which was the reason why Ibn al-Jazari graded
the hadith as good, and he is the Shaykh of the Quran reciters, and most knowledgeable of the
narrators of the Quranic readings, and Allah knows best.9

He remained silent for a moment and then
repeated his words, so I said again: Even if he
fornicates and steals? He (Allah bless him and
give him peace) said: Even if he fornicates and
‫اُ ْص ُبعه على اْنفه َو َيقُول َواِن رغ اني اْبِي ال َّد ْر َداء‬
steals, despite what Abū al-Dardā’’ may think.
Abū al-Dardā’’ would narrate this hadith every
Jumah by the pulpit of the Messenger of Allah
(Allah bless him and give him peace), whilst
placing his finger upon his nose and saying:
Despite what Abū al-Dardā’’ may think.12
13
Ibn al-Tayyib said: The hadith is Ṣaḥīḥ, and it was related by the Imām’s of the Ṣaḥīḥ works.
12
The literal meaning of the saying refers to the nose of a person, it is a metaphor in the Arabic language.

Ibn al-Tayyib said: Related by Al-Bayhaqi in Shuab al-Iman, Al-Khatib in his Tarikh, Al-Sabuni in the
second volume of Al-Miatayn and said: Hadith Gharib. Al-Sakhawi said it was graded Ḥasan by AlMundhiri in his Targhib and Al-Iraqi in Takhrij Ahadith al-Ihyā’, it being apparent that he graded it
Ḥasan due to its supporting narrations. He said: The claim of Al-Sabuni that it is Gharib from the
hadith of Ibn Jurayj is not correct, for Al-Bayhaqi said after relating it: It was narrated Yusuf bin
Safar from Al-Awzai, from Ata, from Ibn ʿAbbās. Likewise it was related by Al-Tabarānī in Mujam
al-Kabir said: This hadith has other routes of transmission from Ibn ʿAbbās, it was related by AlTabarānī in Al-Kabir, and Allah knows best.16

A brief treatise in explanation of this hadith was authored by the Makkan scholar, well known as the Shaykh
al-Dalail of his era in the Hijaz, Shaykh Abd al-Haq al-Ilahabadi.

replied, ‘Mind your own business’; for I asked
one of the companions of Imām al-Shafiʿī
regarding his age, and he replied, ‘Mind your

age, and he replied, ‘Mind your own business’;

age and he replied, “It is not from the
honourable conduct of a man to divulge his age,
for if he is young they will regard him as
insignificant and if old they will regard him as
being of no use.”
Shaykh Abid said: Al-Buwayti is meant by the use of the term, “One of the companions of Al-Shafiʿī”
as explicitly mentioned in the Musalsalat of Sharaf bin Abī Asrun as in the first volume of the Fawaid
of Abū al-Ḥasan al-Halabi and others. However Abū Bakr al-Naysaburi mentioned that the person
who questioned Imām al-Shafiʿī was Al-Muzani, and Al-Shafiʿī linked it via Mālik from Rabia’, and
the first view is the more well known. He said: This statement from Imām Mālik has been narrated
by more than one person, amongst them being Abū al-Ḥasan Muḥammad bin ʿAli al-Azdi alMāliki.17

Shaykh ʿAbbās Ridwan al-Hasani al-Madani (1293-1346H) said in his Fath al-Bar bi Sharḥ Bulugh al-Watr
min Mustalah Ahl al-Athar (p.48), "Perhaps the grasping of the beard is an indication that the matter is in the
hands of Allah Most High...It is thus said in the common saying, “The beard of so and so is in my hand”,
meaning under my control and decision, I deal with him as I wish. Likewise from it are His words Most High,
“There is no creature except that He (Allah Most High) holds it by its forelock.”

Shaykh al-Fādānī even narrated this hadith from his female teachers such as Shaykha Amatullah the daughter
of Shaykh Abd al-Ghani al-Mujaddidi. His students such as Shaykh Khalid al-Turkestani mention from him
that he saw Shaykha Amatullah grasp her chin when narrating this hadith.

said, “I believe in Qadr, the good and bad, sweet
and bitter.” Thus said each of the narrators.
I say, whilst I am grasping my beard, with a
truthful intention and sound belief, “I believe in
Qadr, its good and bad, sweet and bitter.”

said: This hadith was related by al-Ḥākim, al-Khali’, Abū Nuʿaym, and there is some weakness in it.
Al-Qawaqji said: It related by Ibn Asakir in his Tarikh with a pattern chain. Ibn al-Tayyib said that
this is how it was related by al-Ḥākim in the section of Musalsal hadith in his work on the sciences
of hadith. It was also related Abū Nuʿaym in Al-Ma’rifah in a pattern form, as also by Al-Dibaji and
from Ibn Al-Mufaddal in their Musalsal hadith collections, Al-Ghaznawi and al-Khali’ in his Fawaid,
Abd al-Ghaffar al-Sa’di in his Musalsalat and others, and it is not free of weakness.
Shaykh Abd al-Baqi al-Ayyubi commented: I say: I do not know of the reason for its weakness, for
all of its narrators are trustworthy, Shihāb was declared trustworthy by Ibn al-Mubarak, Abū Zurah,
Ibn Main and Al-Ijli. As for the statement of Ibn Adiyy that there is in some of his narrations that
which is reprehensible, then it does not harm him as a narrator.20

wished to stand up from his sitting place would
say: O Allah, for give us for the mistakes which

been public and that which You are more
knowledgeable of than us. You are the First and
the Last and there is no god except You.”

Allamah Aḥmad bin Yaḥyā Hāmid al-Dīn al-Yamani said in Nazm Ajwad al-Ahadith al-Musalsalah (p.12):
This hadith is Musalsal by means of the Itrah, known in the lands of Yemen from long ago and to this day as
Silsilah al-Ibriz bi al-Sanad al-Aziz. The author of the Tabaqat al-Zaydiyyah Sayyid Ibrahīm bin al-Qāsim bin alMuayyad al-Hasani al-Yamani, from al-Shihar and then of al-Taiz (d.1153H) has a biographical entry for the
compiler of the Silsilah al-Ibriz, Sayyid Ubaydullah bin ʿAli al-Jalabadhi, attributed to Jalabadh, an area that
was in Naysabur. He likewise has biographical entries for other narrators from its chain who lived in the past.
It was commented on by Allamah al-Shaykh Ṣāliḥ bin Ṣiddīq al-Namazi al-Ansari al-Shafiʿī al-Yamani who
passed away in the year 975, in a work entitled Al-Qawl al-Wajiz fi Sharḥ Ahadith Silsilah al-Ibriz.
